I’ve been tasked with recommending three big data stocks to sell in February. There’s no question that 2023 was the year of artificial intelligence (AI). A day didn’t go by when a story about AI appeared in the investment media. One area of technology that relies heavily on AI is big data. TechTarget.com contributor Kathleen
In August 2023, Rolls-Royce unveiled the Droptail, the most expensive production vehicle in the world. According to industry estimates, the four vehicles produced will cost roughly $28 million each. And these superyachts on wheels will feature customizations that test the term “production vehicle.” One will feature a champagne refrigerator built specifically for the owner’s vineyard
As 2023 wrapped up, Russell 2000 stocks, mirroring the dynamics of small-to-mid-cap companies, showed resilience, outperforming their initial stance. The iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSEARCA:IWM), a key barometer for these stocks, boasts over $60 billion in assets and a robust daily trading volume surpassing 40 million, setting an impressive stage for these agile market players.
Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to be a major catalyst for the stock market. Most of the growth in the market continues to be concentrated in securities of technology companies, in particular those that are involved in AI. New products for consumers and businesses that incorporate AI are being rolled out at a lightning-fast rate, and
The trillion-dollar market valuation club is currently dominated by the tech sector. Saudi Aramco is the sole exception. The other six members are all part of the Nasdaq’s Magnificent Seven. But if people keep getting prescriptions for popular weight loss drugs Mounjaro and Ozempic, it may not be long before the two Big Pharma firms

The Dividend Champions have increased their dividends every year for at least 25 years in a row. With their long dividend growth track records, throughout all kinds of crises, including the pandemic, the Great Recession, and so on, the Dividend Champion stocks can make for good income investments for income investors. In this article, we’ll
There are some doomed tech stocks to sell amid the broader indices, like the Nasdaq, heading lower. These companies face a myriad of challenges that make them risky investments. Investors need to reevaluate their portfolios and identify companies with fundamental issues that may not weather the storm of what could be a dicey bear market
Cybersecurity firms have tremendous runways due to the rise of hackers and a constant need to keep data safe. Many cybersecurity corporations generate recurring revenue which creates more predictable cash flow and higher growth rates. While you can choose from many cybersecurity stocks, some industry leaders are gaining market share at a faster rate than
In light of recent developments from the Federal Reserve, with Chair Jerome Powell’s apparent reluctance to cut interest rates in the upcoming March meeting, the telecom sector faces growing uncertainty. The shift in analyst expectations now anticipates only a 34% chance of rate cuts, contrasting sharply with the previous 73% forecast. This led to a
Investing in dividend stocks is generally reserved for those who prefer steady returns and low volatility over the thrill of rapid potential gains. Investors saw tech stocks explode in 2023 as artificial intelligence emerged. In 2024, investors expect further growth but are also hesitant. Economists believe that a soft landing is the most likely scenario. Let’s all hope that
As we continue on in Q1 2024, investors are increasingly placing their bets on the direction of interest rates for the rest of the year. While most economists are calling for an easing monetary policy environment, the path to lower rates remains uncertain. Accordingly, many investors may be considering a more defensive position, favoring defensive
Quantumscape (NYSE:QS) has had a rough go of it, so any QuantumScape stock forecast will have to address the company’s difficulties bringing its product to market. It’s now or never for Quantumscape, I wrote last month. The company has been working on solid state batteries since 2010. It said in November its latest design can
Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock has had a rough start to the year after reporting its Q4 and full year 2023 financial results. My initial Tesla stock analysis suggests Wall Street was particularly disappointed with Tesla’s lack of clarity regarding the company’s plan for the future. Tesla is currently navigating through a challenging macroeconomic environment. Rising interest
The semiconductor industry is experiencing a strong demand for chips across various sectors, such as automotive, cloud computing and artificial intelligence. A lot of this demand has led to the rise of semiconductor stocks such as Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) and Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD). However, for investors looking for bargains in the industry, the well-known names are probably not worth
Google and YouTube parent company Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) is a strong competitor in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) technology. Furthermore, Alphabet’s revenue growth should impress investors. Yet, short-term traders recently dumped their Alphabet shares. That’s not a problem, though. My bullish GOOG stock forecast indicates that any drawdown is just an opportunity to start buying. There
Quantum computing stocks stand out as symbols of innovation in a tech world that is quickly changing. They promise to push the limits of processing power and computer efficiency. As investors look for more ground-breaking quantum technology investments, these stocks become more appealing. The quantum computing market is undergoing rapid growth and transformation. As a
Wealthier consumers are likely to continue to be shielded from macroeconomic challenges. As a result, I expect to watch many successful travel stocks that cater to these consumers to continue to thrive in 2024. Meanwhile, a very well-respected consulting firm, Deloitte, recently wrote that companies will seek a balance between budgeting and the benefits that
I cannot stress enough how risky OTC stocks or securities traded over the counter really are. For one thing, just the name OTC should ring some alarm bells. This designation means that these securities don’t trade on exchanges like the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq. Instead, they trade via broker-dealer networks. And not
Technical analysis may still be a controversial idea to some of the old guard but it’s the only methodology I’m aware of that will give you stocks flashing buy signals. Sure, it’s more “factual” for lack of a better word to rely on corporate earnings reports. However, these disclosures only arrive every three months. In
